Okay so the last month has been a blur, especially the last couple weeks......
First, Tryston started swimming lessons with some friends, and he did pretty good!

Then to every one's surprise, we got a visit from Doug and Beth!!! :)

We got a call on Saturday morning saying that they were in the NY airport, and that they would be here by 10:30 pm!

We went camping over Memorial weekend with the "whole" family, and it was a lot of fun!!! Doug went on a walk and found a baby deer, we caught a bunch of horney toads, trey slept a lot better then I expected, and we all just totally enjoyed Doug and Beth!!!

I watched Malea's kids, and Dawson and Trey decided to climb on the tool bench and play......they are so cute together!!!

Trey's crazy static hair...

Visiting Clint...

Malea did a "Roadtrip" photography class, and Allee, Tryston and Trey were some of the models......Tryston loved being a cowboy (thanks em for the outfits, and amber for the pics!!:) He called himself "Cowboy Tryston"

I also wanted to get some cute pics of Trey before the big hair cut.......

Our last night together before Doug and Beth left for New York......Doug was having a hard time breathing, that is why they surprised us.....they had to come home to figure out what was wrong, and they now know he has asthma!!

Wow......busy month, but we had a lot of fun!!!

Sorry it has been so long, I know you all missed me!?!? Anyway here is a little of what has been going on......Tryston had his 3rd Birthday, we celebrated with friends and then later that night with family! He got lots of fun presents, Thanks everyone for coming!!! He has grown up so fast, he is such a big boy and a great big brother!!




Friends


Family


My blue eyed boys!

I seriously can't believe that my baby is already 5 months old!!!


Buzz Light year and my little Giraffe


Our Family


The Cousins

No more diapers.......

I think I can officialy say Tryston will Never Again Wear Diapers!!! I have been dreading potty training for almost a year, and it was so much easier than I thought!! I think the key is that he was old enough to know the urge! The first day I set an alarm to go off every 20 min. The second day I spaced it out a little longer, then on the third day I asked him if he needed to go through out the day. There were a couple of accidents but nothing major, and thankfully no poopie accidents! He is wearing pull-ups to bed, but I have noticed a couple of nights he woke up dry. He has done soooooo Good!!!!

Date Night......

......with my BoYz!!!

Dusty is out of town for the weekend so Tryston, Trey and I went to McDonald's for dinner. That place totally grosses me out, but Tryston loves it, so I make the sacrifice for him! (I am paranoid about touching things.......dirty hands ewww!!!!!) We have to sit by the bathrooms to eat, that way he doesn't see the slide, and he actually eats his food. He had so much fun, and Trey slept almost the whole time. When we left we got an ice cream cone, and by the time we got home it was ALL OVER Tryston! He took a shower, got his jammies on, and now they are both asleep and I am going to paint my toes and watch a movie! Funny Picture!

Tryston is always asking if he can hold Trey, and then once he's in his arms he says "take a picture mom"..........this was taken this morning, and I think it is so funny, it makes me laugh!

Our Music

As I was sitting here reading my last post Trey started getting fussy so I started to sing the song that was playing...........so I thought I would explain! Our music is a combination of my fave songs at the moment and Trystons. Because he is my little shadow, and whenever I am on the computer he wants to listen to his songs. So I added his to the list to make life easier!!!

Upside Down - Jack Johnson.....He loves Curious George!

Life is a Highway - Rascal Flatts.....Cars of course!

Watching You - Rodney Atkins.....He listens to it whenever he's in daddy's truck, it's their song!!!

and whenever we listen to them they have to be loud too :)

Camping

Last weekend we went up to Baker Reservoir to camp and fish! A couple weeks ago was the first time this year that Tryston went camping with his daddy (while I stayed at home and had "Girls Weekend"). He talked about camping and ridding 4-lerlers all week long! They love to camp!!! Me on the other had can only handle so much of it right now...........only 7 weeks left!! So anyways these are pics of the boys fishing!

2 Year Pics

A couple of months late...........but here he is

my big boy and 2 years old!!!

just for you Emily!!

CiRcUs!!!

So Emily and I decided to drive out to the Fair Grounds yesterday to see if the Circus was inside or outside.........It was inside so we decided to go. When we got to the ticket tent it was $16 for adults and $12 for kids (outrageous!)......I would have never paid that price, but we had free tickets for the kids and buy one get one free for the adults!!!! I think the kids enjoyed the performing, but they loved the big slide!! I'm glad we went (I loved the elephants), but I don't think I will ever go again!!!!!

p.s. if you go at intermission you don't have to pay anything!!!!

This is Tryston and Carter going down the big slide!

Fiesta Fun

Carter has been potty training, and getting money for it.......so him and Tryston went to Fiesta Fun today and had so much fun playing and spending all the money!!!! I think these boys are going to cause some problems for us in the future! :)They are so SILLY!!!

Papa and Tryston

Tryston's 2nd Birthday!!!

Today we had a little party at the park for Tryston and his friends.........It was so fun to watch them play together!! They have all pretty much grown up together, so they know each other pretty good, and they have so much fun together........except for when they all want the same toy!! Thanks for coming and for the presents girls!!!! Luv ya!!

Tryston's 2nd Birthday!!!

Tryston had his 2nd Birthday on Thursday, and he was so excited!! All day he would say "it my brrr-day", he was so cute!! He couldn't wait to blow out all two of the candles on his cake. We had a family party at the park, it was like Christmas, he got so much stuff!! He also announced that he is going to be a big brother, with his shirt!! We are very excited!! Happy Birthday Tryston we love you soooooo much!!

Boots!!!

Boots!!!

Tryston's new favorite things are his snow boots!!!! On Friday my mom, grandma, tryston and I went to Cedar City. When we left he had his boots on and wouldn't take them off, so I figured I would just take his regular shoes for when we were out of the car ........... but I forgot them! So he got to wear his snow boots all around town, and he loved it!!!

You have new Picture Mail!

If you look close you can see that they both have toothpicks in their mouths!!!!Like Father like son
